Jo & Adrian Belton, Baslow July 2006

 

"I really enjoyed the gig last Wednesday...Thank you both for inspiring me and giving my ears what they needed. I don't know what the equivalent of eye candy for the ears is, but I think Lounge Lizards are probably very close to it...Karen's voice is like velvet - she has a great voice for this sort of music, although I bet she could sing pretty much anything."
